U & Me against the world

U & Me against the world

We’re expecting our first bub. I had an idea to use toys we’ve bought for him in landscapes and hang them in his nursery.
This is my first one, and I want to do a couple more.
I just kinda liked the idea of him playing with the actual toys that are in the pics hanging on his walls.
Got some odd looks from dawn joggers though.
Taken in Sandgate, Brisbane Qld. Australia.

    Brilliant idea, they just need a bottle of champagne and a cheese platter to top of the romance of it all. Cheers

  • bensound replied

    They didn’t want any champagne but they did put in a request for some honey.

    This is lovely, Ben. First of all, the quality of the image itself – the clouds are beautiful and I love the silky water – but also because of the teddy bears “enjoying” the scene as well. Your child will absolutely adore this image!

  • bensound replied

    Thank you Rosanne. Luck plays a role in landscapes, and the cloud formation was lucky that day.
